Hello.

Is it really Radio Cristal Internacional? This station is inactive on short waves for many years.
Could it be Radio Habana Cuba mixing product?

They still turn up from time to time, ulx. I hear them a couple of times of year normally an hour or so before dark here.

At just 500 watts and stuck between R. Rebelde and the time stations, both with signals as broad as the side of a barn, they tend to get ran over when they do broadcast.

Also WRMI has recently started broadcasts on the new 5010 kHz to Caribbean from 22.00 to 01.00 UTC with relays of RAE Argentina al Mundo, Family Radio, AWR and Radio Slovakia Int'l:

Could it be some programmes relayed via WRMI?
